Come see my photos in a gallery - DPChallenge Forums

On January 29th Otis Smudge in McKinney, TX. where I will be selling/displaying my photos, is having an open house / meet the artists night. The more people I bring in and sign the guest book, will possibly get me a free months rent. So if you're in the Dallas metro area, and would like to come on out, I sure would appreciate it.

Here are just some of the items I will have hanging:

Thanks for all your support!

Hi Danny, nice job :-)

Best of luck! If I were in the US I'd go.

Hope the surgery isn't for anything to bad. I wish her a speedy recovery!

That's the photos in my house before taking them to the gallery. I will post a photo of how they look in the gallery if anyone's interested once I get back to town.

Nothing to serious :)
She is having surgery on her right foot.
We are hoping to get it taken care of so when we go back to the Canyons this year we can hike some of the shorter trails.
But you know how any surgery can make people very nervous.
I'm waiting for her to come out into recovery now.

I have a nephew that lives in Mckinny. I'm going to tell them a close personal friend is having a show and maybe they'll show up. All I ask is that you tell them you worship me and I taught you everything you know. ;)

What time?

Sorry Penny and I could not make it!

Our son's girlfriend came up from Austin and we had to leave at 3:30am to take her to DFW Airport. She had to be there around 4:30am. She left for El Salvador to visit a friend working in the Peace Corp. We then came home and went to bed.

We had to reschedule our Satellite install to Saturday afternoon. We switched from Dish Network to Direct TV with 2 Tivo units. And the installer did not show until late afternoon.

To top it off I had to take my old GMC Jimmy over for servicing. We probably will have to find a mechanic/garage to repair it. We think a rod or bearing may be going in it.

Just one of those days :)

I hope we will have another chance to attend.

I guess I should share those with y'all, shouldn't I? LOL

Danny's work is hanging in the very front of the gallery, which is awesome because you can see it from the streets. I didn't get many good shots because the place was PACKED with people (I had to drive around a long time just to find a parking place), but here are some from inside and outside to give you an idea of what they look like in the gallery. Overall, I think it's fabulous exposure for a very talented photographer. I hope you sell every one of them!!!! :o)
